12000?im assuming you mean 1200 yeah?would be there for months goin up to 12000, that stuffs for jewelers :Sto cut back on the ammount of sanding you need to do, i would sand in 400 first, prime with a low build primer thats preferably not epoxy, then once dry wet rub with some wet-dry 600 grit, then 800, and straight to 1200.its a similar process we use when prepairing parts for pre-chrome primer, cause as with the stuff you use, chrome makes errors stand out like dogs balls on a cat.

what kit are you using? the bomber or destroyer, cause from memory G for Greta used both, bombs on the column in the mountains, and rockets against the land carrier. it also doesnt stipulate the tail fins of the plane, so will be interested in seeing which you have chosen.

might have to re-read the book to follow your progress, but sounds like a great project to do.as it is, atm i am working on my own locust from the same novel, painted in a bright chrome i 'borrowed' from work. being a fellow fan of the novel i would appreciate any comments on my work thus far (no painted pics up yet).the link is http://conceptstorealities.blogspot.com/ and just go to locust on the left side menu.

About Me

I live in New York and have been into the hobby for quite some time now.
I have yet to play a single game but have painted close to twenty different armies.
I really enjoy making quailty armies that I end up selling after a year or so to those who will really enjoy them.
When I am not painting you can find me kicking back enjoying suburban life.
